Trading Hindsight
What I Wish I Knew before I Started Trading Forex
By Brigette Dumas
Hello! I hope you are having a great day, and I can assume by you reading this, you’re thinking of becoming a Forex trader. Which is all very exciting! When I first started trading Forex, I was at a loss for what to do. It was all a lot to take in, and before I even made the leap of deciding to trade for a living, I wish I had watched more of Shawn Lucas’ videos on the techniques he uses and finds most helpful, and had taken all the advice he gives more seriously. Shawn gives great advice and has live trading sessions you can be apart of, to literally watch him trade.
If I had known all these details about Shawn before committing to make a drastic change in my life, then I think I would have had more confidence in my trading and made a lot fewer mistakes in the beginning. Being a part of The Apiary Fund has made me question myself less with my trading, it has helped improve my strategy, and has given me unlimited access to receiving help when I’m feeling lost or confused. Before I started trading Forex, I went through a period of time where I did not reach out to the community that Apiary gives us access too, and if I had, I know I could have learned a lot. I appreciate being able to reach out to fellow traders, all at different stages in their trading because you can bounce ideas, strategies, and tips off each other, and you can also ask and answer questions.
When I’m trading, I love to fall back on the trading room which happens on Thursdays, and Shawn Lucas is usually the one hosting the live video. I try to watch every single video because watching Shawn trade is truly something every trader needs to experience. I admit he makes it look very easy, but what I got most of watching him is that he clearly knows exactly what he’s doing and why. He maintains a certain amount of confidence throughout the entire session, and it’s amazing to watch how it pays off with the right amount of experience and education. Before I started trading Forex, I wish I had more time to explore some of these videos and education because I think it would have instilled a certain amount of confidence needed in order to progress and make my trading journey successful. I hope you enjoyed this, and I hope it gave you the curiosity and excitement you need in order to make a change in your life. What can trading Forex do for your life? Instead of asking yourself that question, why don’t you take the leap and find out?
